λέγουσι δὲ ὡς ἐν μὲν τῇ γῇ ἀπέθανεν ὁ ἀνήρ, κἀγὼ λίθον αὐτῷ ἐνέβαλον εἰς τὴν κεφαλήν, ὃς οὐκ ἐξέβην τὸ παράπαν ἐκ τοῦ πλοίου. καὶ τοῦτο μὲν ἀκριβῶς οὗτοι ἴσασιν. ὅπως δ’ ἠφανίσθη ὁ ἀνήρ, οὐδενὶ λόγῳ εἰκότι δύνανται ἀποφαίνειν.

They claim that the man died on land, and that I hit him on the head with a stone, when I didn't step a foot out of the boat. They know this fact for sure, but as for how the man disappeared, they are not able to give any reasonable explanation.
